I realized while making this insanely long zerg tutorial that I will need to be at home to take screen shots to describe some of the things I want to
convey here. I know I should have thought about this before I made the thread but I didn't.

I will however eventually (tonight or tomorrow) post a detailed zerg multiplayer tutorial with some tricks to gain you that extra edge.

Well,I usually play with Terran and what works for me are the marines(alot of marines).Though,they have their weaknesses.Playing against Terran ur
marines will probably fall victim to siege tanks.And waiting too long before you launch an attack will give the enemy enough time to build stronger
weapons that will leave ur marines pretty much useless.So rushing the enemy and overwhelming them works for me but my tactic has some flaws.
Other than that I geuss the best commander can adapt to any given situation and the Terran units allows for that if you don't get stuck on building
just one specific unit.
Pairing is probably the best.Siege tanks with marines or siege tanks paired up with something capable of taking out air units and protecting ur tanks
for long enough.What I've also noticed is sneaking up on the enemy with Vikings or any air units.
Playing against Zerg sucks.Mainly because they're so quick so launch an attack on ur base.Though,building a gate at ur base entrance will hold them
off for long enough to build a few marines or any other defenses.
Protos isn't that difficult because their units take so long to build and are so expensive though giving them enough time to build up some resources
will leave you regretting it.I'd say rushing them works.But some guys have figured this out and can keep u busy for long enough by building ground
defenses right next to ur base.lol.Which is the most irritating thing ever.
Pretty sure there are alot of other tactics u can use when playing with Terran....

here's an opening terran strategy i've been known to use from time to time...it works well if you are confident in your micro skills, and helps take
advantage of early terran strengths by giving you early economic advantage (about the only thing this build is NOT good for is going Battle
Cruisers)

otherwise...it has served me quite well

Ill redo this some time and demonstrate it as an actual strategy, instead of a replay including the strategy.

seconded...we're right down swamped at work right now...usually just come home, check the forums, watch some TV and crash early...hopefully have some
time soon...it'd be nice to have a lil starcraft cult here on ATS

and after a few tweaks to FRAPS & SC2, you're good to go (for instance, you need to turn your volume on SC2 WAY down, otherwise your voice will be
drowned out)

and you should turn on the +20db microphone boost on your mic (it's under the sound options for recording devices) and, if your sound card allows for
it, turn the feedback for your mic down....otherwise, with that 20db boost, you're going to have a ton of feedback, even if using headphones.

Once FRAPS has recorded, use a program like Windows Movie Maker (thats the one I use) to compile the raw data into something manageable that can be
uploaded to Youtube.

By manageable, i mean that fraps will result in 3 to 4 gigabytes big for a single tutorial, depending on its length, so you need to compress that raw
data into something with a better compression rate...wmv is what windows movie maker uses

i can help you tweak all your settings if you can't figure it out (it took me hours of google searching to fine tune things and figure out where all
the options were)

Or, if you don't feel like going through all that, you can send me your replay file and i'll cast it for you if you wanted to write up a script or a
guideline?
